Chapter 27: Buying a Bow and Arrow

Today's morning exercise is half an hour, because today we have to send bean sprouts to the town.

Uncle Zhou accepted the whole five baskets of bean sprouts, looked at them and said, "A total of 330 Wen, this is copper money, you can collect it." ”

Xia Yingying put away the copper money and asked, "Uncle Zhou, is there a bow and arrow seller in our town?" ”

Uncle Zhou looked at Xia Yingying, this child gave him an unusual feeling, like a young lady from a big family.

Uncle Zhou smiled: "There really isn't a bow and arrow in the town, but I know that there is a place to sell them, you come with me." ”

Before the restaurant arrived, Uncle Zhou took them through a few alleys, and finally knocked on the door and said: "In the past, this family was a hunter, and the craftsmanship passed down from the ancestors, and the old man of their family made bows and arrows. ”

Sure enough, an old man walked out of it, and he saw Uncle Zhou and smiled: "Old Zhou! Long time no see! Come on in......"

Uncle Zhou smiled: "Isn't this an introduction to business?" How is your business doing today? ”

The old man shook his head, sighed, and said, "This business is not easy to do!" Now there are too many people who collect skins, and there are too few good skins. ”

Uncle Zhou said: "This is your Uncle Tu, he used to be a hunter, but now he has changed his career to start a leather business, if you hunt good things, you can also send them directly, his price is higher than our restaurant." ”

Uncle Tu looked at these children and said, "Old Zhou! What do you say to a few children? With the small size of a few of them, is it possible that they can still hunt? Don't laugh. ”

Uncle Zhou smiled: "Don't underestimate a few children, they hunted the two wild boars last time." ”

"Huh? They hunted those two wild boars, yo! That's an understatement! Uncle Tu smiled and arched his hand: "If you hit the prey, send it to me, the price will definitely satisfy you." ”

Xia Ying hurriedly saluted and said, "Thank you, old man, we came this time to ask if you have any bows and arrows for sale at home?" ”

Uncle Tu laughed and said: "Bows and arrows are naturally available, come and come, go to the backyard to see, not only have bows and arrows, but I also have a lot of tools for making traps." ”

Sure enough, the room was full of tools for making traps, and Uncle Tu took them to the treasury again, only to find that the walls in the treasury were full of bows and arrows.

Several boys' eyes were straight, Xia Ying swallowed his saliva and said, "It's so beautiful!" ”

Xia Yingying picked up a bow and arrow, and pulled it directly, which stunned Uncle Tu: "This little girl is good, there is something, and the strength in this hand is really big." ”

Xia Yingying smiled: "You have won the award, to be honest, your craftsmanship is really good, what is the price of this bow and arrow?" ”

Uncle Tu said: "I usually sell the bow and arrow in your hand for one or two silver, but since it was brought by Lao Zhou, it will be a little cheaper, eight hundred Wen." ”

"Shhh......hh

Xia Yingying picked out the bows and arrows in the house again, and finally bought three, spending two taels and 400 wen.

When they walked to the street, Xia Xiong was stupid, they actually bought three bows and arrows, and spent so much money, if Zheng Jinhua knew about it, they wouldn't have to cry to death?

Xia Yingying didn't want to buy bows and arrows, but she thought that she might be conscripted at the end of this year, and she was ruthless.

She bought another 50 catties of rice, spent 300 Wen, and the price of food seemed to have risen a little, she bought some more seasonings, and even made a pot of soy sauce, before slowly returning home.

A few brothers stared at each other, Xia Ying pushed Xia Xiong, and Xia Xiong muttered: "Yingying, are we buying a little too much?" I...... I'm afraid ......"

Xia Yingying was in the sun, and said with a bright smile: "Then the second brother has to practice archery more, your archery skills are good, and we will easily get the money back." ”

Xia Xiong's eyes lit up, and he grinned, "That's right! With bows and arrows, we can go deep into the mountains, go and fight that kind of big game, and soon we will have money. ”

Xia Ying held his forehead and sighed in his heart, this second child is a fool, he originally wanted him to persuade Xia Yingying to save some flowers, but now it was good, and he was directly taken into the ditch.

After arriving home, Zheng Jinhua stared blankly at the bows and arrows on their backs and said, "Why did you buy this thing?" Isn't this what the rich boy likes to play? ”

Xia Yingying smiled: "Mother, I'm so hungry, do you have anything to eat?" ”

"Yes, I'll burn it now." Zheng Jinhua heard her say that she was hungry, so she couldn't care about anything else, so she rushed directly into the kitchen.

Xia Ying put the rice into the kitchen, Xia Hu saw the bow and arrow on their backs, swallowed his saliva and said, "Sister, I also want to learn archery." ”

That's too handsome, isn't it? Don't doubt the fatal attraction of bows and arrows to boys.

Xia Yingying nodded and said, "In a while, let's start practicing at home first." ”

When she was the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, the martial arts leaders invited were all first-class and good.

So this bow and arrow is also very well learned, and it is more than enough to teach them.

A few people hastily ate lunch and rested for a while, before Xia Yingying took them into the courtyard and said:

"Shoot noble type upright, wide crotch under the air to relax the chest, five flat three rely on its sect, based on the weight of a thousand catties, open to be peaceful and elegant, put the need to pause calmly, the back fist phoenix eyes are the most abundant, stable and full can be in the middle.

The two feet, the two hands, the two elbows, the two shoulders and the heavenly court are equal, the ears listen to the strings, the arrows are by the mouth and the chords are against the chest. ”

Xia Yingying picked up her red bow and arrow, then slowly pulled the bow and said, "It must be like me now, see?" ”

Several brothers were eager to try, Xia Yingying smiled and said: "Let's learn to draw the bow today, posture is very important, big brother, you come first......"

Xia Ying slowly pulled the bow away, Xia Yingying adjusted his posture a few times and said, "Not bad......"

It was Xia Xiong's turn, Xia Xiong "tui" two mouthfuls of spit on his hand, seeing Xia Yingying frowning, she said lightly: "Second brother, don't spit on your hands, it's unhygienic." ”

"Huh? What does it mean to be unhygienic? ”

Xia Ying directly kicked his ass and said, "It's your action that is annoying, don't you feel disgusting?" ”

Xia Xiong nodded and said, "Then I'll start ......"

Xia Yingying looked at Xia Xiong's movements and nodded, this second brother really has Huigen, especially in martial arts and archery.

Xia Xiong took the bow and arrow and laughed: "I'm not bad, right?" Hahaha, I'm just a genius, if I really go to the battlefield, I will definitely be the fiercest in the barracks. ”

Xia Yingying looked at Heavenly Dao:

"Second brother, it's not night yet! How did you start daydreaming?

Our bow and arrow are the lightest kind, and a real archer can draw 3-4 stone bows, let's ...... That's 1 stone bow. ”

It's really not that Xia Yingying wants to hit him, but that a real archer can really penetrate Yang in a hundred steps.

Xia Xiong immediately wilted, Xia Yingying patted him on the shoulder and said, "When you practice this stone bow well, how about we go buy a second stone bow?" ”

Xia Xiong immediately nodded.
